Version 58.0.3029.110 from the archive doesn't crash at startup, so this is a regression introduced in the chromium 59 packages.

zesty and artful are not affected (packages for those releases are built with clang). I'm starting to suspect http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~chromium-team/chromium-browser/xenial-beta/revision/1279 (verifying that now).
That patch could easily be gotten rid of in xenial and yakkety where gcc >= 5 is available, but not on trusty (where the default is 4.8 and 4.9 is available).
